About Healthy Living

Their experienced clinical team serves a diverse range of clients, with specialized programming tailored to couples, professionals, and LGBTQ+ individuals, fostering meaningful connection and individualized support throughout each person’s recovery journey.
Develop Tools for Sustainable Long-Term Growth
At Healthy Living, treatment begins with either medically monitored detox or residential care. Clients entering detox receive a comprehensive medical evaluation to review their history and to create an individualized treatment plan, with medication-assisted treatment available to help manage withdrawal symptoms when appropriate. In residential care, clients participate in evidence-based therapies like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and psychoeducation designed to deepen self-understanding and support lasting recovery.

Alongside intensive clinical therapies, Healthy Living integrates experiential modalities such as breathwork, nature therapy, yoga, tai chi, and acupuncture to support holistic healing. Combined with evidence-based approaches, this balanced model provides residents with well-rounded, thoughtfully integrated care. Supported by relapse prevention and their alumni program, clients can continue to feel supported even after they leave.
Rest and Recharge in a Comfortable, Home-Like Setting

Inviting common areas provide space to relax and connect, featuring games, television, and quiet nooks for reading or unwinding.
